Whitney Way Thore got real about her weight loss. The reality star told fans she doesn’t want to be anyone’s inspiration for lowering the numbers on the scale.
The My Big Fat Fabulous Life star, 35, took to Instagram on July 25 and shared a video where she spoke candidly to her followers.
“I’ve been reading my comments, and a large majority of them are people congratulating me for losing some amount of weight that you have perceived that I have lost, but I guarantee you that I’m still fat as s**t, and this hasn’t changed from day 1,” she revealed to her followers. “I’m just not out here to be anybody’s weight loss inspiration.”
She said that although she is flattered by the praise, she has a lot of other things to focus on that don’t have to do with weight loss.
